What are some unusual German foods?
Odd soups:
Beer soup is one of the more unusual offerings. It consists of flour, a liter of beer that has been allowed to go flat, sugar, milk, egg yolks, butter and cinnamon. This recipe is extremely easy to make, requires little cooking and is meant to be served with toasted French or other white bread.
Another different kind of soup is dark bread soup. Its main ingredient is, as the title suggests, dark bread, along with other spices. There is no meat in this or beer soup; however, you can add beef broth or bouillon to the dark bread soup to enrich its flavour.
Meat dishes:
Meat dishes in Germany do include sausage dishes; however, many of them use chicken, beef, turkey, pork or veal. One such dish is schnitzel. This dish is meant to be made with veal; in fact, you are basically preparing veal cutlets. However, chicken, turkey or pork also works well. The difference with this dish is that you can make any number of different sauces to put over the meat. These include cream sauces and tomato-based sauces. You can also simply and melt cheese over the cutlet, or you can spice it up with a fried egg, onions and capers placed on top of the prepared meat.
Desserts:
A more unusual dessert is called a bee sting cake. This cake is prepared using a fairly basic cake recipe, but the difference lies in the almond/egg filling that is spread between the layers and the almond topping that goes on top of the cake.
Other:
Some foods bear unique and sometimes whimsical names. An example is rabbit's ears. This is a mixture of eggs, cream, flour and rum all mixed together to form a soft dough. The dough is patted out into a round and cut into strips, much like dumplings. These strips are then deep-fried in fat or oil.
Why were the German sheppherd dog called alsation?
All those names above refer to the same dog breed - the German Shepherd. After both World Wars, I and II, anything associated with the name "German" fell out of popularity.

Additionally, the members of the German Shepherd Dog Club of America also changed their name to the "Shepherd Dog Club of America".
In England, Ireland and many other European countries the name of the GSD breed was also changed to the name "Alsatian" (from the Alsace-Lorraine area).
In many European countries especially, this name stuck, and GSDs there are still known by this name even today.
The original name for this dog breed in Germany is Deustcher Schaferhund which literally means "German Shepherd Dog". It is also interesting to note that the word "Dog" is actually part of the name of the GSD dog breed.
Other commonly used names for the German Shepherd Dog are GSD, German Shepherd and Alsatian Wolf Dog.
